Abstract: en_US An exasperated store-owner had run through all his fable books and then remembered this book, which he did not have in stock but ordered for me. Tommy dreams after reading books--about Phoebe Fraunces, Emmet Till, Aesop (10-17), Frederick Douglass, Crispus Attucks, and Joe Louis. The Aesop material is heavy on the vita. The text is marred by a few orthographic errors (e.g., Samosans). Two fables are mentioned: the wolves offer peace with the sheep for dog-hostages, and a boy is about to kill a locust. Aesop is of course black. The style is lively and comics-like.
